In addition to the Pacers, who hold the No. 11 pick, the Bulls, Heat and Sonics, who hold the first, second and fourth picks, respectively, will compete in Orlando. New Jersey and the host Magic complete the six-team field.

The Pacers will conduct their rookie and free agent camp from July 3-6 in Conseco Fieldhouse before heading to Florida.

The summer league games are not open to the public but will be streamed live on orlandomagic.com.

There will be three games consisting of four 10-minute quarters each day. The second and third games will follow the conclusion of the preceding games by approximately 20 minutes.

The Pacers face Seattle on July 7 at 3 p.m., Chicago in the third game on July 8, Miami in the third game on July 9, Orlando in the second game on July 10 and New Jersey at 11 a.m. on July 11.

The league does not recognize foul-outs. For each foul in excess of six, the opposing team receives two free throws and the ball. The fouled player will shoot the free throws except in the final 2 minutes of the game and overtime, when any player on the court at the time of the foul can shoot.

PACERS KEEP FORT WAYNE AFFILIATE

The Pacers and Pistons will remain the NBA affiliates for the For Wane MadAnts of the D-League.

The Pacers have never assigned a player to the D-League but worked with the MadAnts' front office on a variety of projects including an affiliate night in Conseco Fieldhouse that featured the Mad Ants' mascot and dance team. The Pacers also sent mascots Boomer and Bowser to Fort Wayne to entertain a game-night crowd.

“We were so honored to have the Indiana Pacers be a part of our great first season,” said MadAnts President Jeff Potter. “The Pacers were incredibly gracious by sending their mascots up to entertain our fans, and we look forward to extending our relationship with the Pacers for years to come.”
